This has never caused any problems with kernel
installations in the past.
I assume that if any selected packages conflict
with any other, I should have received a warning.
I saw no such warning during installation.

I just did the exact same thing in a Virtual Machine. No /usr/lib64 was created.

So, something you did at some time...without knowing it...created it and quite
possibly has lead to your current situation.

Things don't just happen....



It must have been a package. I just wish I knew which one.
I do know for certain I did not create it manually.

I've never been a fan of just deleting stuff that I had no idea how it arrived there....


I would have done...

rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib64

Which should have been done before you deleted it.....

I actually DID do that, and found nothing.
But as was discussed in another post,
that rpm command invocation will not expose
libraries which need it. So, for the time being,
I will not be re-creating it, as it was empty anyhow.

Have you never tried yum -y install everything ?

I believe Ed was referring to installation from DVD.
On DVD installer (Anaconda), there is no everything option. It
is all painfully manual if you want to install "Everything".
As I mentioned to Ed, I recall that when I used to install
RHEL, there WAS an option to install Everything. That option
is absent on the Fedora version of Anaconda.
